ABSTRACT

Industry 4.0 is a recent term that suggests an emerging field or industrial revolution that involves concepts such as cyber-physical systems, Internet of things, and smart factories. In services and manufacturing organizations, it is driving industrial and systems engineers to acquire new knowledge, skills, and abilities, such as data/business analytics and use of software and programming languages (SQL,MATLAB, Python, etc.), and to collaborate with professionals from other disciplines.The purposes of this chapter are (i) to determine the level of collaboration currently observed between authors publishing on Industry 4.0 and (ii) to determine the impact of Industry 4.0 in undergraduate engineering curriculum redesign. To address the goals of this chapter, results from a systematic literature review on Industry 4.0 and two engineering curriculum redesign case studies are documented in this chapter.
